VIVID BLOOMS NEXT SPRING! 
We feature a select supply of Azaleas that will give 
you an assortment of hues in May and early June. The

low to salmon-orange and brownish-gold. Planted as 
foundation plantings in front of evergreens they create 
an imposing picture of beauty and color, succeeding 
- equally well in sun or shade. 
CUTURAL DIRECTIONS: Contrary to the general belief Azalea 
Mollis do not require an acid soil. Mixing a liberal amount of 
erganic matter such as peat moss or leafmold with soil in plant- 
ing holes will help in achieving the best results. To insure max- 
imum bloom each year, remove the faded flowers before they 
go to seed. Do not cultivate deeply as Azaleas root close to the 
surface of the soil. For superior results feed with Miracid soil 
acidifier. (See page 21). ;
